Protecting against the unexpected.

Protecting against the unexpected can give you peace of mind. That’s why we offer eligible members Death and Total & Permanent Disablement insurance3 with options to tailor their cover. With insurance premiums deducted from your super account, insurance cover will continue as long as there are sufficient funds to pay the premiums and eligibility is still met. You can cancel, reduce or apply to increase your insurance at any time. 

Important: Under Putting Members’ Interests First (PMIF) government legislation, Hostplus can only provide automatic Death and Total & Permanent Disablement (TPD) insurance cover when you first meet the following criteria (subject to eligibility requirements):

  • you’re aged at least 25 years, and
  • your Hostplus account balance first reaches at least $6,000.

If you don’t meet this criteria, you can also opt-in to the default level of insurance cover, subject to terms, conditions, and eligibility requirements, by logging in to Member Online. To learn more about PMIF, visit hostplus.com.au/pmif

Consider consolidating your super

If you have super with another fund, any other super account you may already have won't automatically consolidate4 or transfer into your Hostplus account. 

There’s a lot to consider when thinking about whether consolidation is right for you. Before consolidating, compare the fees, performance and other features of each fund and check whether you’ll lose any benefits or be charged a fee for closing an account.  Importantly, if you do close an account, you’ll lose any insurance attached to that account. You may find it beneficial to obtain advice from a licensed financial adviser before consolidating.
